Men, Listen Up! 15 Things You Need To Know About Your Romantic Partner
Do you feel like you don’t know your partner as well as you’d like? Do you sometimes feel lost when it comes to understanding her?
This blog post is for you, men!
We will discuss 15 different things that all men need to know about their romantic partners. These tips can help improve your relationship and make both of your lives easier!
1. She Loves Surpises – Even The Small Ones
A little bit of surprise goes a long way in a relationship. Women love it when their partners take the time to do something special for them, even if it’s something small.
So, don’t be afraid to give her a spontaneous kiss or buy her flowers for no reason at all! She’ll appreciate your efforts and will likely return the favor soon enough.
2. Don’t Be Afraid To Compliment Her – She Loves Hearing That She’s Beautiful
Women love compliments, plain and simple. If you see something that you like about your partner, don’t be afraid to let her know!
Tell her she’s beautiful, tell her she’s sexy, tell her she’s amazing – whatever it is, she’ll appreciate the sentiment.
3. Don’t Always Try To Fix Things – Sometimes She Just Wants You To Listen
For men this can be one of the most difficult, they are just wired to want to fix things. But sometimes your partner just wants you to listen.
She might not always want or need your help fixing the problem – she might just want you to be there for her and offer some support.
So, next time she comes to you with a problem, try listening instead of immediately trying to fix it. You may be surprised at how much difference that can make.
4. Let Her Know When Your Feeling Down
Women are intuitive by nature, and they can usually sense when their partners are feeling down. It can be tough for men to be vulnerable but as a woman, we don’t want you to always hide your feelings from us.
If you’re ever feeling low, let her know – she’ll most likely do everything in her power to make you feel better. Whether that means taking you out for a romantic dinner or simply holding you while you cry, she’ll be there for you. And that’s what relationships are all about, after all.
5. Plan A Date Night Once A Week, Even If It’s Just Staying In And Watching A Movie Together
Date nights are important, especially in long-term relationships. They help keep the spark alive and remind you both why you fell in love in the first place.
So, make sure to have one night a week that the two of you dedicate to each other. It doesn’t matter what it is as long as the two of you are putting your focus on your relationship.
6. Be Open About Your Feelings And Communicate
Communication is key in any relationship, so make sure to always be open with your partner about how you’re feeling.
Whether it’s good or bad, she needs to know what’s going on inside of your head.
Don’t ever feel like you have to hide something from her – if there’s a problem between the two of you, talk it out and try to fix it together as best as possible. If she really cares about you then she’ll understand where are coming from and want what’s best for the both of you.
7. She Loves When You Make Decisions For Her – Even If She Doesn’t Always Like Your Choices
Women love it when men take charge. We like the feeling of security it gives us to know that the man is in control.
As long as you’re making decisions that benefit both parties involved, she’ll appreciate them even if it’s something she may have not picked for herself!
8. Don’t Mistake Tears For Weakness
Women tend to be emotional creatures, and that’s not always a bad thing.
If your partner is crying, don’t take it as weakness or an attack on you personally. Instead, try to understand where she’s coming from and see if there’s anything you can do to help her feel better without making assumptions about how strong/weak she might seem at any given moment.
Also men, don’t forget that sometimes our hormones are going crazy and we may be incredibly emotional for seemingly no reason. So don’t overreact if we are occasionally a little weepy.
9. Telling Us To “Relax” Doesn’t Usually Work
Telling a woman to relax when she is upset usually does the opposite. She’s probably already feeling tense and stressed out, so telling her to relax isn’t going to help the situation – it’ll only make her feel worse.
When we hear our partner tell us to relax it can make us feel like you don’t think our feelings are valid
If she’s really worked up about something, try listening to her and trying to understand what might be wrong. Chances are, she’ll appreciate your effort even if she doesn’t always show it.
10. You Should Always Defend Us
We love it when you stand up for us, whether we’re around or not. If someone is being rude or mean to us, it’s always nice to know that our partner has our back.
And similarly, when we are with other people never talk badly about us to others. It is okay in private if you want to have a discussion about something, but don’t make fun of your partner when your with a group.
11. Take Interest In Our Hobbies (Even If You Don’t Like Them)
Just because you don’t necessarily enjoy your partner’s hobby doesn’t mean that you can’t take an interest in it!
Learning more about what she loves doing and why it means so much to her will help strengthen your relationship and make her feel like you really do care about her. Or at the very minimum, dont act like you think our hobbies are dumb or a waste of time.
Plus, it can’t hurt to learn a new thing or two!
12. Don’t Compare Us To Other Women
Women are complex creatures, and no two of them are alike. So, don’t ever try to compare your partner to another woman – especially her mother.
It’s not fair to either of them and will only lead to resentment and arguments down the line. Just accept her for who she is and be grateful that you have her in your life!
13. Let Us Talk About Our Feelings (Even If They Scare You)
It’s perfectly natural for men to be scared of their partners’ emotions sometimes, but that doesn’t mean you should ever ignore them.
If your partner is opening up to you about her feelings, listen to her and take them seriously. Don’t try to brush them off or act like they don’t bother you – that’ll only make things worse in the long run.
14. Offer A Helping Hand (Even When She Doesn’t Ask For It)
Women are often independent creatures who like to do things on their own, but that doesn’t mean they don’t appreciate a helping hand from time to time.
If she’s struggling with something, offer your help without being asked – even if she tries to refuse at first. It’ll show her that you care about her and want to do whatever you can to make her life easier.
15. Always Be Honest With Us
Honesty is the key to any successful relationship, so always make sure you’re being truthful with your partner.
If you’re feeling down, tell her. If you made a mistake, own up to it. It might not always be easy, but she’ll appreciate your honesty more than anything else.
